[09:19] <Kilos> im scared to try that
[09:19] <Kilos> could it be because smart is not active in the bios

[19:36] <Kilos> Rooitier, welcome to ubuntu-za
[19:36] <kbmonkey> do you have experience with ubuntu/linux running windows app Rooitier ?
[19:36] <Rooitier> nope im trying to run it through play onlinux
[19:36] <maiatoday_too> yeah I think you have repository version of wine and playonlinux
[19:36] <Rooitier> but apparently when i try to mount it it state that the file is not found
[19:36] <kbmonkey> :/
[19:36] <maiatoday_too> Rooitier: did the installation work ok?
[19:36] <magespawn> Could virtual box a whole xp setup?
[19:37] <maiatoday_too> winehq says it runs gold tho
[19:37] <Rooitier> ya
[19:37] <kbmonkey> okay good, just checking winehq now :)
[19:37] <magespawn> Stacraft 1 or 2?
[19:37] <kbmonkey> usually they also give install/run instructions there
[19:37] <Rooitier> 2
[19:37] <kbmonkey> starcraft 2
[19:37] <Rooitier> yes
[19:38] <magespawn> Specs are quite high on that
[19:38] <kbmonkey> wish I can get hold of that ;)
[19:38] <maiatoday_too> maybe Rooitier should go to the ubuntu hour on saturday
[19:38] <maiatoday_too> will you be there kbmonkey 
[19:39] <Rooitier> cause first i did via disc but there i could only install on a terminal but if i try to open and mount it shuts down :(
[19:39] <Kilos> maiatoday, superfly pinged you a while ago
[19:39] <Rooitier> k
[19:39] <maiatoday_too> I should mail him, I have been so snowed under

[19:41] <Kilos> magespawn, there was someone on here a while back that is in eshowe, do you remember
[19:41] <Rooitier> um yes i saw this one review on opening up a terminal and downloading and restarting but i guess its out dated
[19:41] <magespawn> Yup Kilos
[19:41] <Kilos> who was it?
[19:41] <kbmonkey> if you installed WINE through the software center, you should have the latest repo version
[19:42] <Rooitier> ok ill quicly check ups
[19:42] <magespawn> Cannot remember the nick,
[19:42] <kbmonkey> let's not get into compiling wine just yet, that is for much later ;)
[19:42] <maiatoday_too> it looks like the default instal is 1.3.28
[19:42] <maiatoday_too> and winehq says 1.3.17 ran platinum
[19:42] <maiatoday_too> oops 1.3.27

[19:48] <Kilos> * services. gives channel operator status to ChanServ
[19:48] <Kilos> * You have been kicked from #wine by ChanServ (Invite only channel)

[19:49] <Rooitier> ok kbmonkey
[19:49] <kbmonkey> wow it's amazing how many howtos and tutorials are in video format now
[19:49] <kbmonkey> how did it go Rooitier 
[19:50] <Rooitier> it said i must copy it to the hard drive
[19:50] <Rooitier> did
[19:50] <Rooitier> it
[19:51] <kbmonkey> I found steps here: http://www.clockworkhare.com/2010/07/penguin-post-how-to-install-starcraft-2-on-linuxwine-if-you-get-weird-permissions-issues.html
[19:51] <Rooitier> so now i attempt to download it to my comp
[19:51] <kbmonkey> step 1 you did by mounting
[19:51] <kbmonkey> so do step 2 and 3 in that link
[19:52] <kbmonkey> it copies the installer to your desktop, and runs it
[19:52] <Rooitier> k
[19:52] <kbmonkey> hope that works! 
[19:52] <kbmonkey> how far did you get into that manual Kilos ?
[19:53] <Kilos> isnt that one of them games that play only when cd is in
